Back in 2014, I worked freelance for a public relations firm in New York City. It was there that I met an unusual woman. I didn’t know many lawyers or Texans, but I knew better than to chalk up her qualities to either her profession or her home. It’s rare that I encounter someone who I’m afraid to argue with, because of her sheer brain power and towering personal rectitude. But this was such a person. This woman had quite a career behind her. An evangelical Christian, she’d been a federal prosecutor — and quit, outraged at the corruption she saw among her colleagues. She did more than quit. Horrified by prosecutors hiding exculpatory evidence and targeting the innocent because of their personal politics, she became a defense attorney, to help people fight the feds. She Gave Up Everything to Expose Abusive Prosecutors But that wasn’t enough. At a huge financial sacrifice, she took time off from her practice to write a book. And self-publish it. And hire a public relations firm to get it out to people, when media ignored it. That book, Licensed to Lie, is absolutely chilling. It shows innocent Americans, even a U.S. Senator such as Ted Stevens of Alaska, unable to defend themselves against prosecutors with vendettas. It recounts how innocent companies, like accounting firm Arthur Anderson, can be broken by biased and dishonest federal prosecutors, and left in ruins. A real-life legal horror story, the book was too disturbing for me to read it through to the end.

I too want to hear what you have to say, andythebear.
Ask her
And yes, from the first days of law school many many lawyers wonder if they will ever have the honor of arguing before SCOTUS.
Lawyers will say I WILL TAKE IT ALL THE WAY TO THE SUPREME COURT..few get the chance
My guess, Powell does not get the chance with this one.
but as always ..we will see.
It looks like the @$$ of a judge is holding up the conclusion to Flynn’s case and makes it sensible to pardon now. I am sure Trump wanted all the legalities to play out as necessary, but the @$$ has his heels dug in and Trump needs Flynn.
Something very very off with that Judge. I tend to believe the rumor about Cummings, Sullivan’s son, and Rod Rosenstein...etc.
We don’t know what’s going to happen with Trump yet.
I’m sure he has Flynn as one of the issues uppermost in his mind, and will act as he - AND General Flynn - decide is appropriate, as things play out.
Proof of that would constitute a “BOMBSHELL” indeed. It would be a major game changer.
This is WAR.
THIS WEEK. is. FILING WEEK.
Sidney files in GA. tomorrow ( weds ).
Can’t wait !
Linn Wood is all over it. Threatening the scum Republican corrupt asswipes
This is WAR. OUTRIGHT WAR.
It’s an excellent book. Much as Levins “men in black “
Damn. I wish I were still as young as you seem to be - or at least, as young and stupid as your presumptions present you as being - and believed so many of the manufactured notions that you do.
It would have been an interesting education to live through once again - just for retrospective laughs.
We will see if she gets one of the highest honors a lawyer can have..arguing before SCOTUS
I guess you think she will
I say she wont
so we will see.
she may on another case..but not this one
I don’t think it’s about the ‘honor’ of arguing something before the Supremes, in Sidney’s mind.
I think she cares much more about TRUTH.
(Your posts increasingly convince me that you’re a very silly and superficial person.)
ASK HER if she feels like it would be an honor to argue before SCOTUS
go ask L Lin Wood and see what he says
they both have twitter and parler accounts
We are going to win. They want us to see the fraud. They knew they couldn’t win. So they are settling on this. So they can say it’s contested for next four years. Nothing more than that. Sure are an evil bunch!
President trump just retweeted Powell’s kraken tweet from today ! Holy shit!
I don’t do ‘Twitter’ or ‘Parler’.
I get all the news I really need, right here.
But I don’t think that Sidney is concerned about any ‘Honors’.
I think she just wants the Truth to be known, and our Republic saved.
“He seems to want exoneration.”
If his case is dismisse3d he gets the fruits of his life’s labor back, his pension, fees, etc.
A pardon gives him freedom, but does NOT pay him back for what he lost.
Rumor? Please dish.
False narrative? Are you serious? You must not be aware of the vote dumps and the analysis of the reported vote tabulations. At a minimum, these show stealing. The data is out there and it’s in the numbers that do not lie. There is clear fraud.
And what makes Robert Barnes an elections expert? How does he know what Ms. Powell does or does not know? I suspect Ms. Powell has had a crash course in election law and procedures.
